About the course

 

This five-week-long masterclass, with a one-hour individual follow-up session, will give you an in-depth understanding of behavioural insights; the theory as well as how you can apply behaviour change principles to real-life scenarios and campaigns faced by your organisation. 

The course is aimed at those in communications, policy and operational roles who want to understand more about behaviour change - understanding it, as well as going through practical examples to help you apply it. 

You will come away with an understanding of our very own BEST framework (Behaviour, Examine, Solve and Test) along with working through other behavioural models, such as EAST (Easy, Attractive, Social and Timely) and COM-B (Capability, Opportunity, Motivation and Behaviour).

​

And you will gain an in-depth appreciation of what drives human behaviour; the barriers that prevent people from taking action and how to bring predictability to what appears, on the surface, to be unpredictable human behaviour.

During the course, you will work through the BEST framework to give you a behavioural framework to plan your campaigns, improve service delivery and bring predictability to what appears to be unpredictable human behaviour.

 

You will come away with an understanding of how to set behavioural objectives, how to implement them, and importantly how to measure whether they have been successful, often at low cost.

 

How can behaviour change theory help you?

​

Behaviour change theory can help tackle a range of topics facing public sector organisations today. Attendees will receive a pre-event survey, so that case studies are tailored to campaigns and scenarios you are facing today. Examples include,

 

​

Workshops

The behaviour change training was a really valuable day – fascinating and insightful. The most value was definitely being able to practically apply the theory to live campaigns that we are currently working on. It was incredibly useful having a real example of what’s worked and what hasn’t – the team are much more confident in applying behaviour change theory into their campaign planning now.
